Abstract

Flat and/or semi-flat paints are prepared by adding as rheology- and performance-improving agents both a water-soluble nonionic cellulose ether and an associative polyurethane thickener, the weight ratio of polyurethane thickener to cellulose ether being 2:8-8:2.

Description

  • The present invention relates to a method for preparing flat and/or semi-flat water paints, a water-­soluble nonionic cellulose ether and an associative polyurethane being added as rheology- and performance-­improving agents.
  • In the making of flat or semi-flat water paints, it is customary to use cellulose ethers as thickeners. Cellulose ethers are advantageous in that they produce the desired effect at a low cost and yield a good tex­ture (grain). The viscosity-increasing effect is rela­tively unaffected by additives, such as tinting colo­rants. On the other hand, with increasing molecular weights cellulose ethers give relatively low viscosi­ties at high shear rates, and poor levelling, which means inadequate hiding power.
  • It has therefore been suggested to replace the cel­lulose ethers with an associative thickener of the poly­urethane type. It is true that the associative polyure­thanes give improved viscosity at high shear rates, but they also give a poor texture (grain), which is linked with extreme levelling. The associative polyurethanes therefore have not been commonly used as rheology- and performance-improving agents for flat or semi-flat paints.
  • It has now been found that flat and semi-flat wa­ter paints with excellent properties can be obtained at low costs by combining a nonionic water-soluble cel­lulose ether with an associative polyurethane thickener, the weight ratio of polyurethane thickener and cellulose ether being 2:8-8:2. In the present context, "flat and semi-flat" paints relates to paints having a pigment volume concentration of at least 30%. By combining a nonionic water-soluble cellulose ether with an associa­ tive polyurethane thickener, it has proved possible to essentially maintain the positive characteristics of the two components while suppressing their negative charac­teristics.
  • In the present context, "associative polyurethane thickener" relates to a polymer containing at least 2, suitably 3 or more hydrophobic groups having 6-30 car­bon atoms with intermediate hydrophilic polyether seg­ments, the hydrophobic groups and the hydrophilic seg­ments being interlinked to an essential extent by ure­thane bonds. They usually have a molecular weight of 10,000-250,000, preferably 15,000-100,000. A large num­ber of such compounds are known and described, e.g. in US Patent Specifications 2,946,767 and 4,079,028 and European Patent Publication 96,882, of which relevant portions are included by reference in the present spe­cification.
  • The water-soluble nonionic cellulose ether may have both alkyl substituents and hydroxyalkyl substituents or combinations thereof. Typical examples of suitable non­ionic cellulose derivatives are methylcellulose, methyl­hydroxyethylcellulose, methylhydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxyethylhydroxypropylcellu­lose, hydroxyethylhydroxybutylcellulose, ethylhydroxy­ethylcellulose and propylhydroxyethylcellulose. The above-mentioned cellulose ethers may also contain a minor amount of hydrocarbon substituents having 4-20 car­bon atoms, such as benzyl, dodecyl, octyl and decyl sub­stituents, provided the cellulose ethers become water-­soluble. Preferred cellulose ethers are such ethers as contain an alkyl group, such as a methyl or an ethyl group. The nonionic cellulose ethers preferably have a viscosity of 5,000-150,000 mPa·s in a 2% aqueous solution measured on a Brookfield viscometer. A suitable floccu­lation temperature is 50-80°C.
  • The positive effects of the invention have been ob­served on paints based on a number of binders which differ essentially from each other. Suitable binders are alkyd resins and latex binders, such as polyvinylacetate, polyacrylate, copolymers of vinylacetate and acrylate, copolymers of vinylacetate and ethylene, copolymers of vinylacetate, ethylene and vinylchloride and copolymers of styrene and acrylate.
  • The present invention is further illustrated by the following Example.
    • Example 1
  • A flat indoor paint having a pigment volume concen­tration of 46% and a dry solids content of 54% by weight and containing 25% by weight of a polyacrylate binder, Rhoplex AC-64, alternatively a binder consisting of a copolymer of vinylacetate and acrylate, UCAR 367, was admixed with one of the additives stated below in such amounts that the paints had a viscosity of 122 KU at low shear rates measured according to ASTM C 562-81. The fol­lowing results were obtained. The indicated amounts re­late to active content. Table 1

    • 3) Ethylhydroxyethylcellulose C (BERMOCOLL E 481 FQ) has a flocculation temperature of about 70°C and a viscosity in 2% solution of 80,000 mPa·s (Brookfield) at 6 rpm.
    • 4) Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose F (Methocel J5MS) has a gelling temperature of 56°C and a viscosity of 5,000 mPa·s (Ubbelohde) in 2% solution.
    • 5) Polyurethane D (Acrysol RM-825) is an associative poly­urethane thickener and has a viscosity of 1,000-2,500 mPa·s (Brookfield) and a dry solids content of 25% by weight.

  • The different paints were then tested for levelling according to ASTM D4062-81, the following results being obtained. Table 2

  • A levelling value of 3-6 gives a suitable texture for a flat or semi-flat paint. A levelling value of 9 or 10 indicates excellent levelling which is however not desirable for flat or semi-flat paints because of the resulting unsatisfactory texture. From the results appears that additives 2-15 according to the invention, all of which have the same viscosity at low shear rates, have a levelling value essentially better adapted to flat and semi-flat paints than when polyurethane alone is used as thickener.
    • Example 2
  • The same paints as in Example 1 were admixed with additives 1, 4, 7, 9, 11, 13 or 15 according to Exam­ple 1 and 5% by weight, based on the weight of the paint, of any of the tinting colorants Colortrend Thalo Blue and Colortrend Lamp Black. The viscosity was there­after determined at low shear rates. The following re­sults were obtained. Table 3

  • The viscosities obtained should be compared with 122 KU, which was the viscosity of the paints without the addition of a tinting colorant. From the results appears that the changes in viscosity are considerably less for additives 4, 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15 according to the invention than for reference additive 1.
    • Example 3
  • The same flat paints as in Example 1 were admixed with one of the additives stated below in such amounts that they had the same viscosity at low shear rates. The components are the same as in Example 1. Table 4

  • From the results appears that in those cases where the cellulose ethers gave a viscosity which was relative­ly low at high shear rates, it was possible to notably improve the viscosity by adding an associative polyure­thane thickener without any change of the viscosity at low shear rates.
